You need to understand how Claimrow function selects and claims rows. The lookup is based on the last pairs of variables you provide in the function call. If a row already exists with this data, it will be selected. Otherwise a new row will be claimed.

In your example, you are only sending the email address:

ClaimRow('CouponCodes','IsClaimed','EmailAddress',@em)

As each time an email is sent to a given recipient, you will find the same row and re-send the same voucher code. You will need more parameters in your function call to ensure unique code will be sent to the same individual in each email, like this:

ClaimRow('CouponCodes', 'IsClaimed', 'JobID', JobID, 'ListID', ListID, 'BatchID', _JobSubscriberBatchID, 'EmailAddress', @em)
